Therapists in Richardson, TX

Hello, looking for a place where you can feel safe to be vulnerable, gain insight and understanding, as well as work towards your desired goal(s)? I understand that we all have unique lives, experiences, and circumstances that can affect the way we think, behave, believe, and express ourselves. Being unique, having your own story to tell, and learning to navigate life is a part of our journey. Therapy can help with navigating these life changes as we grow, adapt, revert, thrive, and survive.

As a top honors graduate from Texas Wesleyan University, I have been trained by some of the best licensed professionals in the mental health field today. Having done my graduate practicum at Sante Center for Healing, I learned that treating clients from a holistic perspective gives them the skills they need in all areas to address their greatest concerns. As a client of mine, you will be asked to be an active participant in your therapy. The vast majority of my clients report more happiness and positive changes in their lives after only a short time as my client.

If pornography, sexual compulsion, trauma, relationship issues, or addictions are causing distress in your life, I'm here to help. I am a highly experienced addiction, trauma and relationship therapist working with adults, adolescents and couples. Using evidence-based therapies such as EMDR, you can overcome triggers, urges, and emotional obstacles. As a progressive Pastoral Psychotherapist, it is my passion to help my clients thrive--not just survive the challenges of life. I integrate psychotherapy and my own recovery journey to help you live into the gifted, authentic, wholehearted person whom you truly are.

I specialize in children ages three and up, adolescent, and adult therapy. I often deal with single parents, families going through a divorce, and children whose parents are divorced. To assist these clients, I take into consideration the struggles each client is going through. Emotional disturbance, behavior issues, as well as anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and depression, can also be addressed in individual therapy. Improving the quality of life for each client is the main goal of therapy. Guiding the way...through the storms of life.

You deserve respect for your potential to grow and heal. Whether I am partnering with you through counseling, supervision, clinical consultation or therapeutic yoga, my priority is empowering you to recognize, access and live into your inner wisdom. It is human nature to thrive in safe connections, and I admire your bravery in recruiting someone to join you in your process. As we collaborate towards your personal or professional goals, I hope you’ll find yourself seen and heard, your worth honored, and your goals realized.

Life can often be hard and unexpected challenges can happen to anyone. I believe that having the support of someone in our corner can help us discover our unique qualities so we can emerge from difficulties stronger than we ever thought possible. I will provide a compassionate and supportive environment while we embark on your journey of growth and healing. Taking this first step is often very difficult and I invite you to contact me and see if counseling is right for you and if I would be a good fit for your needs.

Your present-day triggers, depression, and anxiety may stem from unresolved trauma and/or early childhood attachment wounds. Did you know unhealed experiences shape how you navigate life as an adult? You have low self-esteem and feel burned out. You have difficulty speaking up and communicating your needs. You are overly responsible, the fixer, or the peacemaker. You internalize a lot. You aren't sure what you need or want because you focus more on what others need and want. It's hard to trust others. You feel alone in your struggle and no one understands. You're stuck in trauma responses. I can help you break the cycle.

Some days life is great, others we get bogged down in our busyness, work stress, family conflicts, school pressures and well, just drama. Coping some days is easy - others, it's tough just to get out of bed. Whether you just need a sounding board, struggle with anxiety/depression, have a history of trauma or you're not sure why life is tough, there is help. I seek to create an open, accepting environment to listen. I offer treatment options that bring health and wholeness. My goal is to create safe space for you to achieve yours.

I provide client-centered and evidenced-based counseling and psychotherapy to individuals struggling with various life stressors, self-esteem, anxiety, depression and post-trauma stress. I also specialize in working with clients with acquired brain injuries (i.e. stroke and TBI), dementia, as well as individuals with chronic illnesses.

Hi, I'm Stacy, an LPC with a unique counseling style tailored to fit your individual needs. Yes You! Afterall.... we are each different but experience similar life challenges. I totally get it. In working with clients, I believe it is imperative to recognize everyone as an individual first and foremost, then we both collaboratively work together addressing concerns, conflicts, challenges, obstacles and basically anything that is impeding your opportunity at living a happy life. I am passionate about providing counseling services that are practical and reaffirm the best interest of each client. Let's do the work together!

Healing and making life changes is what therapy is all about. I work with adolescents and adults using approaches encompassing spiritual, cognitive, behavioral, insight, and EMDR to make this happen. EMDR is a physiologically based method of therapy I use with many clients who have post traumatic stress, disturbing memories, anxiety and/or a history of abuse. This ranges from trauma experienced by veterans of wars, crime, and natural disasters to childhood emotional and physical abuse to varying degrees. Together we will match your therapy needs with the optimum approach for your healing and facilitation of change.

I love working with clients who are seeking to identify and change patterns in thought, communication, and relationships. My clients are individuals and couples who are experiencing struggles and roadblocks in how they view and interact with themselves and others. I enjoy helping people grow in awareness of what is causing their issues and learn how to effect change in their lives and relationships. I offer clients a safe place to experience and process their emotions, identify unhelpful patterns and learn healthy coping skills.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who works with adult populations. I offer treatment for individual, couple, throuple, poly, complex/open relationships, or family therapy. I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationships, sexuality (LGBT issues, coming out, HIV/AIDS, and more). I want you to know that I understand and am comfortable exploring the complexities of modern relationships. I strive to provide a safe environment where I will work with you to provide structure, encouragement and support in a non-judgmental atmosphere where we can collaborate to identify and work toward your growth goals.

I am a seasoned professional who has the privilege to be in private practice for over 20 years, specializing in family therapy and the creative arts to resolve conflicts and dilemmas. As a credentialed and registered art therapist, I have a passion for my field helping people to open-up to their creativity. I receive tremendous joy working with children, women, couples and families as trained in my doctorate of marriage and family therapy. Key issues include: ADHD, Autism Spectrum, couples therapy, children of divorce, adoption issues, parenting issues, transgender and identity, spirituality, mood disorder, anxiety and depression.

We are born-in, hurt-in, and healed-in relationships. I can help you unpack the challenges that keep you from living your best life. We constantly seek connection and a sense of belonging in our personal, family and work lives. Living in a state of despair, disappointment, and pain is not normal. If you desire change, let's start that journey today. I know how to help move you from where you are, to where you want to be. Growth and change can be anxiety provoking, initially. But, so rewarding when properly nurtured. My passion is helping people take courage in learning how to fully experience the hope that is within them.

Chronic pain and illness can impact all aspects of a person’s life. They can be physically and mentally debilitating and directly affect relationships, work, finances, confidence, and ability to complete even simple daily tasks. If you are having trouble managing symptoms of pain, illness, side effects from treatment, or feeling stressed, worried, or isolated, you are not alone. Millions of people are struggling with health issues, and those around them don’t always understand, don’t know how to help, or both. It can be overwhelming and difficult to handle on your own.

My clients tend to be people who march to the beat of their own drum. They know what it’s like to feel misunderstood, and some might go as far as to consider themselves “black sheep” or even outcasts. My approach to counseling involves embracing your unique identity and letting go of expectations others may have put onto you. Whether you are working through depression, anxiety, relationship troubles, or uncertainty, I want to help you become your most authentic self.

Whether the pain that brings you here today is trauma, grief, loss, a chronic medical or emotional dis-ease, or you are searching for a meaningful existence here in this life, you are NOT alone. The feelings of emptiness, hopelessness, anxiety or numbness you are currently experiencing can be reduced and even eliminated from your life. I want to EMPOWER you to reclaim your life and author the remaining chapters of your story! We work so hard to become the person that we think or feel others need us to be, that we lose who we were designed to be.

I am a bilingual and bicultural therapist and I am honored to walk with clients as they navigate various life challenges. I thrive to establish a safe therapeutic relationship with clients who have experienced trauma and difficult life circumstances. I am an EMDR trained therapist and understand that early life experiences affect and mold how we walk through life. My goal in the therapeutic process is to meet the client where they are at and offer a culturally sensitive approach to their challenges. I hope to hold a safe space for each client as they navigate and find their healing.
